Hi All,
I posted this on Loganberry's Stump the Bookseller site and so far no
luck...so i thought I'd pick your collective brains!
Elaborately illustrated 1970s chapter book
Don Wood style???, 1970s. Okay...I am going to need a LOT of help with
this one...this is an obscure chapter book possible with a subtitle
stating it's a fable orn fairytale for adults (as well as children). A
little girl has a stable of toys (a bear, rabbit, owl, possible a
ballerina doll? or a toy soldier?) all of whom embody the
personalities of adults and give the little girl advice. She may be
troubled about something...possibly sort of existential in
nature...maybe her parents' divorce? I can't remember. The
illustrations were elaborate - possibly some color plates but very
beautifully and expressively rendered. This may not be a children's
book per se, although I read it as a pre-teen in the 1970s. ANY IDEAS?
Thanks!
